Why is bacterial transformation important?

Sourav PanDecember 7, 2024

Answered

Bacterial transformation is significant because it serves as a fundamental tool in genetic research and biotechnology. It enables the study of gene function, the production of recombinant proteins, and the development of genetically modified organisms. In medicine, transformation is utilized to produce therapeutic proteins like insulin. It is also critical for understanding natural genetic exchange, which contributes to antibiotic resistance and bacterial evolution.
